DIALECT

I am listening to Patrick Stewart “Making It So” on Audible

When he speaks in his Yorkshire dialect he then translates into normal English 

–I don’t need this translation—

My Dad was from Yorkshire (he grew upon a farm)

One of his sayings that made me laugh

Was — “Put wood inthole”

Translation –“shut the door”

I was born in Wigan Lancashire

We travelled to Australia on the SS Strathnaver  in 1952 and arrived at Outer Harbour South Australia on the 2^nd March

I turned three on board ship

We returned to the UK in 1959 and stayed six months in a two up two down house

Patrick Stewarts home was only one up one down

At the time I had difficulty understanding my grandfather’s dialect

These days dialects are not as broad
